I have a db on a Linux machine and my project is on Windows

I want to connect to the local linux db but I'm still getting this error Database connection "Mysql" is missing, or could not be created.

my database.php

public $default = array(
    'datasource' => 'Database/Mysql',
    'persistent' => false,
    'host' => 'xx.xx.xx.xx',
    'login' => 'xxxxx',
    'password' => 'xxxxx',
    'database' => 'xxxxx',
    'prefix' => '',
    'encoding' => 'utf8',
);

I've tried adding 'unix_socket' => '/tmp/mysql.sock', same error message.

How can I connect to my remote DB?

have you created database? – Dhara Parmar Apr 26 '16 at 09:19
yes, it was the first thing that I've done. – Nemeth Apr 26 '16 at 10:21
What you put in host ? are you working with external mysql server ? – Arman Petrosyan Apr 26 '16 at 11:25
@Arman Petrosyan yes – Nemeth Apr 27 '16 at 09:31
on this case check your external mysql server configs , maybe you haven't access to connect to it. – Arman Petrosyan Apr 28 '16 at 12:31
